Heeja is a displaced North Korean immigrant in the U.S. At the age of 80, after a squabble with her fellow Korean immigrants, she decides to become an American citizen. Waiting to go in for the final interview, the immigration officer unsuspectingly calls Heeja by the name Yoshiko, a name she carried more than seventy years ago when she lived under Japanese imperial rule. It is at that moment that Heeja is forced to reckon with her past and identity.
